"What I was going to mention, about her fairy blood, is that I really like that there is a REASON she's like catnip to vampires, but I wish the problems arising from that (and her telepathic nephew) had been explored more, instead of some stupid fairy war that really doesn't fit with the over-all tone of the books."
Yeah, but there's always a reason: Anita Blake is a necromancer, therefore vampire bait. Rachel Morgan is a witch, therefore vampire bait. The thing about those two though is that it's always been a part of them.
Sookie finding out about some fairy ancestor is cool and all (self discovery provokes character change) but it sounds like from what you and my friend have said that it just ... kinda popped in, was mentioned, and then passed by.
And what supernatural series DOESN'T involve a freakin' faerie war nowadays? Honestly ... when I get to writing about faeries in my novel, I'm doing it different.
